The International Collaboration for Research methods Development in Oncology (CReDO) workshops: shaping the future of global oncology research. Lancet Oncol. 2021; 22: e369-e376 Summary Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (3) Google Scholar described the evolution, structure, and impact of the International Collaboration for Research methods Development in Oncology (CReDO) workshop and other similar workshops on global oncology research. Although CReDO is a promising venture, its long-term outcome is questionable and needs immediate reform to achieve improved and sustainable research output that meets global standards. The International Collaboration for Research methods Development in Oncology (CReDO) workshops: shaping the future of global oncology researchLow-income and middle-income countries (LMICs) have a disproportionately high burden of cancer and cancer mortality. The unique barriers to optimum cancer care in these regions necessitate context-specific research. The conduct of research in LMICs has several challenges, not least of which is a paucity of formal training in research methods. Building capacity by training early career researchers is essential to improve research output and cancer outcomes in LMICs. The International Collaboration for Research methods Development in Oncology (CReDO) workshop is an initiative by the Tata Memorial Centre and the National Cancer Grid of India to address gaps in research training and increase capacity in oncology research.
